Excerpt from Back to Work: The Story of Pwa
IN order to correct the ills Of unemployment and again to start the wheels Of industry, the national administration, in midsummer of 1933, under power granted to it by Congress, undertook a program Of public works. Pwa, as this enterprise soon came to be known after our Ameri can fashion Of familiar abbreviations, has aroused and held the interest Of the people in every part Of the land. SO far-?ung have been its activities that there are few sections Of the country where visible evidence Of pwa may not be seen by the interested. In hundreds Of thou sands Of homes pwa has meant steady wages, which in their turn have meant food and shelter and clothing, with perhaps a bit left over for some of the comforts and modest luxuries Of life.
